| Abstract: | The waste producers and disposal companies must bear the blame for locating too much hazardous waste in Britain. The real error is a system of enforcement which rests in the hands of the local authorities. Co-disposal or the mixing of hazardous waste with domestic refuse, has always been popular in the UK, but the EC is introducing strict regulations. The import of hazardous waste has risen quite dramatically. Increasingly, the major multinationals are ready to spend time and money on ensuring that their waste is properly disposed of. Waste disposal is based on a system of site licences, granted by local authorities all interpreting non-statutory guidelines. |
